My suspension is that the Reserves mostly ignored the shot mandates and waited it out. They have other jobs that they don’t need to suck on the military teet. The rest of the military complex are either Yes Men who happily took the clot shot or have been labeled as expendable (by fighting the jab.) It’s a full on removal of any resistance.
Edit: My second suspicion is that the military does not have enough people due to the mandates. I know of at least 5 military members who bailed when they could. They asked a total of 100 others and they concluded about 5 would remain.
It’s door number three: recruitment is in the toilet because the military has turned into yet another gay tranny debacle. The southern conservative white boys who used to make up the majority of fresh meat are turning their backs on the service, and with the full support of their multi-generation military families.
Fwiw, my extended family and their contacts are rife with vets and not a single one recommends joining up. Doesn't matter the branch, they all actively advise against joining.
The reservists are in-addition to active duty already stationed there. Hes adding more soldiers to that area with this without removing active duty from elsewhere.
I suppose from a very warped perspective, it's a tiny bit like reinforcing a province in a Total War game with a unit or two just in-case a bordering nation might attack.
Except in this case it's an ally's territory we're reinforcing and the player's been playing some shady shit with agents and geo-political diplomacy shenanigans which is why the player is worried about retaliation.
If the goal is to enact Article 5 and formally declare war by putting your troops dangerously close to enemy fire at the border, that's one way to do it. It worked for FDR.
I mean was WW2 really any different? There was years of slow build up and war before that speech and the fiery entrance of the US.
Japan was going into China in '37 and most people didn't care. Even Lend Lease which is the most similar to the what we're doing with Ukraine was almost a whole year before Pearl.
The elites hate us, and have now graduated to actually wanting to see us all nuked back into the stone age.
The feeling is mutual, believe me.
And if there was a way to conceivably just nuke the elites, the feeling is still mutual. Fuck these fuckers. To the stone age with these traitors.
The Boomers need company in Hell.
Wtf is operation Atlantic resolve? He gonna bomb another pipeline?
Nuclear Boogaloo
I really wonder what this portends. And why call up reserves? Aren't there active duty who can do this?

The embarrassing withdrawal from Afghanistan that echoed the Fall of Saigon didn't help.
There is also a shortage of white men. We have demographic genocide of whites. There aren't really enough of us left.

Surely the US military has enough active duty to cover 3000 redeployments?
Depends on what mos they're trying to get. Some are in short supply that's only getting shorter.
Riflemen? Sure. Trainers for the missile systems? Not a lot of those guys out there.
Of course, but apparently the Pentagon/Biden don't want to use those resources.

Oh, and nukes too.
Oh thanks for comparing it to bibeo game now I understand

WW3 sure is off to a boring start. Where's the thundering speeches? "July 13th, a day that will live in infamy..."
Jerry Bruckheimer could do much better than this.

Not to mention everyone in Europe declared war and then did nothing all winter of ‘39. Everyone called it the “Sitzkrieg” at the time.
Buh, buh, Orange Man bad, most dangerous president in history!
This brings us closer to a nuclear confrontation with Russia and eventually China.
But hey, at least there's no more mean tweets.
He calls it OAR because he's up the creek without a paddle
nobody should be dying for a fake country.
Putin must have listened to Chukna and decided to invade every Baltic country. Dark Brandon won't let that happen, pal.
Consequences will never be the same.
He dun goofed
Have fun guys! Too bad no one wants to fight for this shell of a nation.
Go die for zog
A lot of people are about to question if their DD214 safety blanket is really safe.
I hereby call to fight for R̶a̶t̶h̶e̶o̶n̶ equality and for B̶l̶a̶c̶k̶R̶o̶c̶k̶ Ukraine
